The Love
It was a blessin to have her affection
Interestin to see her go that extra mile ..
for my heart's protection
2 doves of love nestin for no less then
Eternity, now it burnin me to see my reflection ..
without her restin beside me.
Correction Im lying
Complexions defining
The treu meaning of Ebony and Ivory
Ebony, my heart, blood, sweat and tears
Steered me into a state ..
in which I can't connect the years
Not knowin how many went by
Since her image met my eyes
Both, we're eachother's staff
Made out of wood, ply
Never caused her cries
Always lit up her grey skies
The brakes tried, but were unable ..
to cease the act that makes lives
No mistakes, why?
If I answere that, it'd be a lie ..
in disguise of death
And yes for her I would've died.

The Want
Ivory, the perfect compliment to the other
Can call her my secret lover
So alike I think they shared the same mother
Cant help thinking of her
Skin, so soft to my touch
Hardly to I see her much ..
and that absence is makin me blush
Such a delite thru the night
Her shine, blinds me with fright
The sight of suche purity
Makes ureges become impolite
Does she have the right ..
to be considered supreme?
Along with free ..
and the passionate right to dream?
It seems unfair, only difference ..
the colors of their hair
Give or take the tone of their skin ..
but why should I care?
Here I am caught between ..
a war of back stabs
Cryin my heart out ..
cuz I cant have the last laugh
Everyday I walk right past ..
Ivory holdin hands with Ebony ..
the one I love, the other's the one I can't have.

The Mistake
Today I feel alone ..
home, with no heart to call my own
Ivory's at her house down the street ..
Ebony's on the phone ..
I miss you, wish I could ..
be there with you ..
Yea sorry bout that I shoulda ..
Been awake to kiss you.
I said my goodbyes ..
even pretended to cry
She told me Id make it thru the week ..
I told her Id try
A whole week without her here ..
the feeling I feared
Plus it's been about a year ..
since I caressed Ivory's hair ..
Im in here I said as she came in
She walked in the room ..
I stared her beauty down in amazement
How's ur day been? I asked ..
seconds later she was in my grasp
She asked about Ebony ..
She's gone, buried, that's in the past
She laughed, I kissed her lips
Never had anything this perfect
Didn't need any coersions ..
we strove on eachother's urges ..
embedded in love making ..
moans and groans of pleasure ..
in the distance keys shaking ..
too late to take back my loaned treasure ..
and passionate kisses, the moisture on her thighs ..
footsteps ascending the stairs ..
I tried to close it from my mind ..
ready to combust inside ..
the door swung open, I jumped up
My tough luck, I finally made her cry ..
Im sorry Ebony baby, I fucced up.

sounded like more of a song than a written. is this a song you made with a beat and what not? i mean its a written obviously but what i mean is sometimes songs are a bit more to the point and easier expressed without abstract thought i think thats how i felt about it. not my favorite from you but its still good

keep workin the magic ill keep reading

interesting rhyming scheme, quite smooth, wasnt really keen on the way you set it out, but ya had some decent imagery and wordplay, which i felt kept the interest going, not a bad slant on the topic either, when i first started reading, thought it was gonna be the same shit... but you handled it a bit different..... quite a good drop......

this was an amazing piece man...so full of imagery, emotion and clear humanity that it was...superb?
your flow was great, I loved the mass amount of rhyming words in the first verse...very quality.
I don't usually like subtitled pieces, but this came out well...
I liked the use of Ebony and Ivory as their names

great piece man =)
